Singing has long been known as a means of expression for the soul. Kirtan provides a medium where singers and non-singers can engage in this practice in a safe and supportive environment. Kirtan belongs to that area of practice known as Bhakti (devotional) yoga and is renowned for its capacity to open hearts and reach towards the higher self. At Open Space we come together once a month in a larger gathering to experience the divine energy of Kirtan.
The event itself is free of charge and we provide food and chai on a donation basis. All funds received are passed on as donations to support the Sansar Gyaan Pathshala School. Located in northern India, the school provides free education in an area where many children, especially girls, would not otherwise receive education. The school is fully operational and provides for over 300 students of primary school age together with scholarships to allow for further education.
All are welcome at Open Space Kirtan. Food and chai from 6.00pm. Kirtan at 7.00pm. Please register for catering and organisational purposes
+ Chai and vegetarian dinner available (by donation).
+ Provided seating is mostly on floor cushions (some chairs available for those with difficulty sitting on the floor).
+ Children are welcome but must be supervised at all times inside and outside the venue.
